NIBHI VAMSA VARNANAM

Vide 9 - 13,
9 th Skandham, 13 th Adhyayam

In the proud heriditary of IKSHVAGU, there comes another ruler by name NIBHI. IKSHVAGU had a son by name NIBHI. He was a proud ruler known to all. NIBHI performed a very big YAGNA (divine sacrifice). The YAGNA performed by him was a divine one, running for longer years of time. The YAGNA was called as SATHRA YAGAM.

NIBHI prayed at the lotus feet of VASISTA RISHI (SATHGURU) to perform the rituals of YAGNA. To this VASISITA Rishi replied, "Oh! Mighty ruler! I am happy in accepting your invitation. But, then DEVENDRAN (ruler of heaven) was running a SATHRA YAGAM. He asked me to attend it. To his request, I have already gave my word and promised him that, I would be attending the YAGNA without fail. I have to keep up my word. Let me complete the YAGNAM of Devendran. After finishing it, I will return to your place. Till such tiem, wait for me. " NIBHI remained silent, after listening these words from VASISTA RISHI.

VASISTA RISHI went to the SATHRA YAGAM of DEVENDRAN. He did the YAGAM perfectly with utmost devotion. After finishing it, VASISTA RISHI came to the place ofNIBHI.

One strange thing was happening...

NIBHI was a true devotee. He had the true wisdom of divinity. He understood the reality of life. This life remains unstable. The soul residing in the body, can leave the body at any point of time. This life is short. This life is running short. No one can understand the destiny of one's life.

The SATHRA YAGAM need to be continued for many years. I am waiting for VASISTA RISHI. But, then the right time had not yet come. I am running short of my life. Let me start the YAGNAM. Knowing the uncertainity of life, NIBHI RAJAN took the risk of starting the YAGNAM without the presence of VASISTA RISHI (SATHGURU).

VASISTA RISHI came to the place of NIBHI RAJAN. He was shocked to see the YAGNAM being performed by some other BRAHMINS. NIBHI RAJAN committed the greatest mistake of disobeying the command of SATHGURU. VASISTA RISHI kept his promise alive. After finishing the YAGNAM of DEVENDRAN, HE came to the place of NIBHI. The SATHGURU always think about the welfare of SHISHYA (Devotee). They never forget their words and promises. They will keep up their promise. On the other hand, the SHISHYA should seek the qualities of patience and perseverance in their life. The golden periods of fortune and prosperity will struck in the life of each and every SHISHYA, without fail. To this end, SHISHYA has to go by the means of devotion and should have the determined faith in the words of SATHGURU.

NIBHI RAJAN gave utmost importance to the rituals at the expense of SATHGURU. This remains a greatest sin. The SATHGURU brings the BHAGAVAN hidden in our body as a soul. Before the glory of SATHGURU, no ritual of any high value remains comparable. Their divine mercy of bestowing the divine grace of BHAGAVAN remains a huge mountain in comparison to the rituals as a sack of sand particles.

VASISTA RISHI grew angry at the misconduct of NIBHI as a SHISHYA. VASISTA RISHI cursed NIBHI RAJAN, " Let the body of NIBHI RAJAN engulfed in the "EGO" of 'WISDOM' be fell on the ground. Let him die. "

NIBHI RAJAN grew angry. He lost his senses. Against the norms of divinity, NIBHI RAJAN gave a curse to VASISTA RISHI. As a divine rule, a SHISHYA (Devotee) should never think ill of a SATHGURU. NIBHI RAJAN cursed VASISTA RISHI, " Oh! Reverred BRAHMIN! You are greedy. You went to the place of DEVENDRAN for the material sake. Let your body made of greediness be fell on the ground."

In BHAGAVATHAM, no more explanation was given about the after effects of the curse of NIBHI RAJAN. A great moral lies behind this. The curse gave by a SATHGURU remains a blessings in disguize. The curse gave by a SATHGURU will bring glory and prosperity to the successive generation of SHISHYA. But, on the contrary if a SHISHYA think ill of a SATHGURU, then it will ruin the life of SHISHYA. It is advisable that never we should resort to such destiny in our life.

It is a divine norm to think about the welfare of mankind. Let our mind think good things. Let us speak good words. Let our conduct be good. Let our mind be fixed on the good things of life. Let our mind be purified by the RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM. Let us never clinch to the wrong notions of life. Let our senses namely speaking and hearing be focussed towards devotion. It is a sin to speak about the ruining of a SHISHYA's life. To avoid it, in BHAGAVATHAM, no more explanation was given to the outcome of the curse of NIBHI.

Wait till next issue to know about the glory of VASISTA RISHI (SATHGURU)

By listening and speaking about the evil things, we are unnecessarily adding fuel to the fire of evil. Let us never do it, as a SHISHYA. On the contrary, the words of SATHGURU may be about the evils of society. Because their words will cleanse the evils of society. They are born for the welfare of mankind. They are born to cleanse the sins and the evils of mankind. As a divne role, they preach about the ways and means to ward off the evils of mankind.

The behaviour of a SATHGURU remains a mystery. We have to chant RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM continously to keep our self humble enough to accept the words of SATHGURU.

We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, in this life. Let us use this life fruitfully. Let the glory of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM and SATHGURU be spread always. Let the RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM as given by POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, reverberate the entire world.


JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!

JAI SHREE RAHDEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!

RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...
